Last minute notes
-----------------

The default dual-slot functionality doesn't work on at least 2 computers: Sony HB-55 and HB-75. Please enable the "Slave Slot
as Master's Subslot" option to be able to run 2 ROMs at the same time on these computers. This also applies to certain Arabic
MSXs that have only one free available slot.

If any of your CF cards or SD-to-CF adapters no longer work with Carnivore2, try to replace the IDE bios with an alternative
version. To do this, rename BIDECMFC.ALT into BIDECMFC.BIN and write the IDE BIOS into Carnivore2 with the C2MAN or C2MAN40
utility.

When a computer is just powered on with the Carnivore2 cartridge inserted into a slot, it may reboot twice. This is normal and
was implemented to make sure that the cartridge is fully initialized after the cold boot. You can enable the dual-reboot feature
in the Configuration settings.

When using Carnivore2 with National FS-4600F computer, always boot while holding the CTRL key. Otherwise some of Carnivore2
functiona may not work properly. It's unknown why this happens on this particular machine.
